When exactly has any Source engine game looked good? Even HL2 wasn't that great when it came out.

wtf are you talking about? HL 2 was a damn fine looking game when it came out. I played it in DX7 with an MX440 and even then it was the best looking game out there at the time. that Lost Coast demo was also stunning looking when it came out.When exactly has any Source engine game looked good?

...what is BMDM?
Isn't that where you tie a girl up and spit on her?

Better than 1998 graphics, right?nice 2003 graphics
nice 2003 graphics
After the leaked vid blunder, I'm very unsure if I'll even touch this before reading what fellow [H]ers have to say about it. I've become a true cynic about BMS & the BMS dev team.
Are you saying Half-Life 2 had 2003 graphics in 2004?
You have to admit, he has quite a lot to lose by trying a free mod. In the time it takes him to try it, he could instead iron a shirt.Yes, heaven forbid you form your own opinions, right?

It seems that the people whining about the "2004" graphics don't realize that this a mod for a 2004 engine. Disregard the amount of modification/alterting the engine has gone through over the years, no major graphical enhancements have been implemented. How does one expect a mod of HL2 to have today's high quality visuals? How about we change the discussion from, this game looks bad, to, what source titles look better than this?
Hl2 Cinematic Mod.
Yeah, that came out a month (if that) before the release got announced.
What the what?
Cinematic Mod has been in development for years and has had many releases almost a dozen now. Perhaps the latest incarnation was announced last month...but I've had CM10 on my machine for well over a year, and damn it looks good-better than many of the brand new AAA title release of the last year IMHO. Source engine may be old/ancient, but with some 3rd party patching and load it with higher quality models and textures it can look great.
Just because it is Source doesn't mean it has to look like crap.

That actually sounds about right.

It not only looks worse than source engine games released recently. From the crappy screenshots, it looks worse than every source engine game released ever. As it's a "graphical update" you'd think they get that bit at least semi decent looking. It's just a really lazy looking mod. Like they wanted to make these 2 things from it, but couldn't be assed to do the rest, or anything well, and just rushed to get this finished, then got bored.
If visuals don't matter, play the original. If they do, this will hurt you, badly.

The facial animation system has still yet to be matched, in my opinion.The graphics in HL2 were extremely impressive for its time. Facial animations, texture quality, lighting affects and in general a very photo realistic look. Compared to UT2004, Far Cry 2, ect. it was very ahead of its time.
Bitch, bitch, bitch. It's a free mod, for Christ's sake.As it's a "graphical update" you'd think they get that bit at least semi decent looking. It's just a really lazy looking mod.

Just because it's free doesn't mean it gets a free pass to be lazy and shit.
